Nkemdiche was charged with disturbing the peace, disorderly conduct and failure to comply with a police officer. The incident took place an off-campus apartment Saturday night, which also happened to be the player’s 21st birthday. All three charges are misdemeanors.

Nkemdiche, a redshirt junior and the older brother of 2013’s No. 1 overall recruit, Robert Nkemdiche, is coming off a year in which he played through injuries. He managed only 35 tackles a year after collecting 82 tackles along with three interceptions, four forced fumbles and three sacks.

Linebacker Serderius Bryant was also arrested. He was cited for public drunkenness and disturbing the peace. Bryant led the Rebels with 78 tackles last year, including 12.5 for loss.

According to the Clarion-Ledger, that makes four arrests of Ole Miss football players this offseason. Cornerback Bobby Hill was charged with sexual battery in January and defensive end Channing Ward pleaded guilty last week to a DUI charge.
